Topic: Can someone help me please - page 4. (Read 5509 times)

 Thanks for the info but I think that's a little too complicated for OP to attempt.  Besides, if he just types in the right 12 words from the right deterministic wallet, he has access to all of the private keys that could ever be created for his wallet.

I found this article on the BC.I may be the same case of you https://blog.blockchain.com/2016/05/16/transaction-0/, and this maybe can help you to export Private key https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14860686.

As I said before:

So I put my 12 word phrase  here  BIP39 Mnemonic
Or the bit that says phrase ?

You could take the same 12 words to the  https://dcpos.github.io/bip39/ web site, type them in, scroll down to the bottom and see 20 Bitcoin addresses.

You can go into your recovered wallet and press the new address button 19 more times.

I would expect the 20 addresses produced at  https://dcpos.github.io/bip39/ to match the 20 addresses in your recovered wallet.

If they do match, that is expected.  If they do not then let us know.

I already recoverd my original wallet like you said burtw I done it threw Bc.i wallet recovery and I clicked the create adress button once like you said will I do this all again bit use the link you sent to recover there ??

Question:  On the SETTINGS -> Addresses page have you ever pressed the blue "Create New" button?  If not then please do not, that would only confuse things more.  If you have please let us know.

Yes, you can do exactly as he said - but I think you will just duplicate what we have already done.

1) Type your 12 words into this web site:  https://dcpos.github.io/bip39/ in the BIP39 Mnemonic box

2) Once it accepts the 12 words, scroll down to the box that says "BIP32 Extended Key (addresses only)" that is where your xpub is.

Check this xpub.  Since we basically did the same thing when we typed your 12 words back into a new account a blockchain.info I will bet the xpub you get will be the same, it will probably be this one http://imgur.com/a/uMtD2 (xpub6CKq5V...)

If it is the same as the one we got by typing in the 12 words to blockchain.info then, yes we have duplicated that result.  If the same 12 words produce a different xpub then that would be a bug.

The problem is that since the 12 words you get from your blockchain.info account produce xpub6CKq5V... (I think you will find this to be true again) you do not have, or have not found, the 12 words that produce the other xpub  xpub6CVUkj... which is the one you need to produce the bitcoin address 1Masr1mezkmAqhtWT9RsWzt2e21aYApco.  So, you are stuck and you will never find the private key to own those Bitcoins held at the address 1Masr1mezkmAqhtWT9RsWzt2e21aYApco until you get the 12 words or the xpriv/xpub key pair that produced that address.

If you import those 12 words (or the xpriv key produced from them) into any other wallet you will/should get the same result since one set of 12 words maps directly to only one xpriv key which maps directly to only one xpub key which maps directly to an exact sequence of private/public key pairs.

You will be able to see, when you type your 12 words into the site https://dcpos.github.io/bip39/, the sequence of Bitcoin addresses and corresponding private keys produced by those 12 words by scrolling down to Derived Addresses.  It will show you the first 20 but you can get the next 20, and the next 20, and the next 20 for as long as you want to press the next 20 button.

You can verify all of this by checking the first 20 addresses produced at https://dcpos.github.io/bip39/ with the newest wallet you created at blockchain.info with your same 20 words.  Just press the new address button in your latest wallet 20 times.  It will create the same 20 Bitcoin addresses.

Is there anyway you can tell me how to do that xhomer and I'll give it a try I have never done anything like that before iv always kept everything as simple as I can and have had no problems

My friend has suggested I use electrum is that easy enough to use for a newbie lol thanks again guys

I played around with my blockchain.info wallet today including creating a second, separate wallet.  When I tried to log in via windows, it defaults to the new wallet.
Then I used the security link in settings to create a "wallet recovery phrase" or "back up phrase" as the button says.  Once I wrote down and verified the phrase the 12 words I went to this site:

https://dcpos.github.io/bip39/

and I typed in the 12 words with spaces in between in the box labeled "BIP39 Mnemonic".

Then I scrolled down to the heading "Derivation Path" and selected the "BIP44 tab"

A little further down the page is the heading "Derived Addresses" and there I saw every address and private key that exists (or ever will exist) in my Blockchain.info wallet. Note that the private keys are shown in WIF compressed format which will import into the Blockchain.info wallet.  I think (but don't quote me on this) the core wallet requires uncompressed WIF private keys.

So if Andlog972 didn't import a private key to use the 1Masr1mezkmAqhtWT9RsWzt2e21aYApco address in his Blockchain.info wallet, he should be able to see it and its private key by doing this same thing.

Yup, I read the entire thread....Followed along and tried to wrap my brain cell around it too.  It's a very strange situation, and it's interesting to say the least.  It seems that the problem has to be with blockchain.info's  reckoning....right?  The transaction is published on the ledger, as viewed through other explorers, so it seems that as long as the PK to the address is known, then it should be accessible on another client.  Right? 

Thanks for trying to help.  Did you read the thread?  We have been through a lot already on this issue.

Conclusion:  Something's wrong if this is your wallet address and your wallet is not displaying a balance....try exporting your wallet to a light client, or better yet, a Core client (<-- may take awhile to synchronize, but it's worth it).  If it's just a bug in blockchain.info's UI (<--or some form of localized collision), then as long as you have your wallet.dat (pk) you should be able to access your balance on the ledger.  Right?

I am sure I made new wallet for the transaction thanks guys so my seed made 2 xpub keys instead of there being 1 for the original and new / the same one for both ?

That is exactly what I originally thought but I have been very careful in trying to rule out that possibility.  Yes, this is the most likely explanation.  Andlog972 when you get a chance please think this possibility through and make sure that is not what happened.

I sent an invite to the thread, we will see if we get a response to my invite.

 That's why I'm thinking the address is not in that wallet.  Maybe you are looking in the wrong place?  Can you check your older wallets to see if you inadvertently created the new address in one of those?

ow,like that. as a warning not to forget the password, I guess it can not be replaced unless recover.

EDIT: thanks for info.

Yes, it can be changed:  SETTINGS -> Security -> Wallet Password -> Change

This is not to not believe what you say, this is just to get clarity on what happens.
because the bc.i did not respond so you do not have a companion in this case., and I also have an account there with HD features on the new wallet and I also use a version of the smartphone wallet,and looks fine so far .

Ok, BurtW not accept it.
you just have to wait for a response from bc.i .. or someone else will be able to help you further.

i think password in bc.i can not be changed.

I am also sure I made a brand new wallet for te transaction

Burtw doesn't want the login details iv already gave them to my seller as at first I think he thought I was talking shit I changed pw after
